Investors can benefit from buying these companies while they are discounted, because they gain when the market prices move towards the stocks’ true values. Below is a list of stocks I’ve compiled that are deemed undervalued based on the latest financial data.

IDK’s stock is currently trading at -88% below its actual value of $1.17, at a price of CA$0.14, according to my discounted cash flow model. This mismatch indicates a potential opportunity to buy low. What’s even more appeal is that IDK’s PE ratio stands at around 2.06x while its Capital Markets peer level trades at, 12.34x implying that relative to its comparable set of companies, we can invest in IDK at a lower price. IDK is also strong in terms of its financial health, with short-term assets covering liabilities in the near future as well as in the long run. IDK has zero debt on its books as well, meaning it has no long term debt obligations to worry about. Dig deeper into ThreeD Capital here.
